Modelling of the effects of Na+ and Ca2+ ions on the generation of action potentials by rabbit heart true pacemaker cells.

چکیده
A comparison of results of modelling and physiological experiments allowed to estimate in the first approximation the quantitative contribution of calcium and sodium ions to the generation of different ionic currents determining the shape of the action potential (AP). Generally, the model reproduced adequately variations in AP shape with changes in the external concentrations of Na+ and Ca2+. At the same time the model differs slightly from the experimental results. To improve the model kinetic variables of slow inward current have to be taken into account.

Neuronal cells communicate with each other by producing electrical signals or action potentials (APs). Different ion channels, including Na+, K+ and Ca2+ channels, are involved in generation of AP. Once an AP is generated in the soma, it travels down entire the axon length toward its terminal in a self-generating fashion that ultimately conveys information between neurons in the neural circuit....

Background: The sinoatrial (SA) node is not a uniform tissue in terms of its histology and electrophysiology. The regional differences in action potential configuration are well known, for which the difference on ionic currents underlying the regional differences in electrical activity is the most probable cause. The ionic current "if" is though to play a major role in SA node for pace maker sl...
متن کاملHistopathological effects and toxicity of atrazine herbicide in Caspian Kutum, Rutilus frisii kutum, fry
This study aimed to investigate the toxic effects of atrazine herbicide on the fry of Caspian Kutum (Rutilus frisii kutum, Kamensky, 1901). First the 96-h LC50 of the fry were exposed to atrazine at the concentration of 24.95 ppm was determined. Then the toxicity of this herbicide on Caspian kutum fry exposed to the concentration of 12.47ppm (1/2 LC50), for four days was measured and compared w...

The mammalian sino-atrial node is not a uniform tissue in histological and electrophysiological terms. The differences in ionic currents underlying the regional differences in electrial activity are only just beginning to be understood. One of the ionic currents it is thought to play a role in the center of sino-atrial node for action potential upstroke should be transient Ca+2 current ...
متن کاملComparison of the effect of quasitrapezoidal and rectangular pulses on bio- electrical activity, calcium spike properties and afterhyperpolarization potentials of Fl cells of Helix aspersa using intracellular recording
While the effect of changes of stimulus waveform (quasitrapezoidal and rectangular current pulses) on nerve activation is clear, but there is no evidence on the effect of quasitrapezoidal pulses on ionic currents of cellular membrane. In the present study, the effect of depolarizing quasi-trapezoidal current pulses, in comparison with that of depolarizing rectangular current pulses, on firing...
